8 Our Lord Jesus Christ said: You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart,and with all your soul,and with all your mind,and with all your strength.This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it:You shall love your neighbour as yourself.On these two commandments hangall the law and the prophets.Matthew 22.37–40, Mark 12.30–31

12 PRAYER OF THE DAY Brightness of God’s glory,whom death could not conquer nor the tomb imprison: as your have shared our frailty in human flesh, help us to share your immortality in the Spirit; let no shadow of the grave terrify us, and no fear of darkness turn our hearts from you.Reveal yourself to us this day and all our days, as the First and the Last,the Living One,Our immortal Saviour and Lord. Amen.

15 Christ our Passover has been sacrificed for us:so let us celebrate the feast,Not with the old leaven of corruption and wickedness:but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.Christ once raised from the dead dies no more:Death has no more dominion over him.In dying he died to sin once for all:in living he lives to God.

16 See yourselves therefore as dead to sin:and alive to God in Jesus Christ our Lord.Christ has been raised from the dead:the first fruits of those who sleep.For as by one man came death:by another has come also the resurrection of the dead;For as in Adam all die:even so in Christ shall all be made alive.

26 AFFIRMATION OF FAITH I believe in God, the Father almighty,15/04/2017AFFIRMATION OF FAITHLet us together affirm the faith of the Church:I believe in God, the Father almighty,creator of heaven and earth.I believe in Jesus Christ,God’s only Son, our Lord,who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,born of the virgin Mary,suffered under Pontius Pilate,was crucified, died, and was buried;he descended to the dead.

27 On the third day he rose from the dead; he ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father; from there he will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.15/04/2017

37 In Christ alone my hope is foundIn Christ alone my hope is found. He is my Light, my Strength, my Song; This Cornerstone, this Solid Ground, firm through the fiercest drought and storm. What heights of love, what depths of peace, when fears are stilled, when strivings cease! My Comforter, my All in all, here in the love of Christ I stand.

38 In Christ alone. Who took on flesh; Fullness of God in helpless babeIn Christ alone! Who took on flesh; Fullness of God in helpless babe! This gift of love and righteousness, scorned by the ones He came to save: Till on that cross as Jesus died, the wrath of God was satisfied; for every sin on Him was laid; Here in the death of Christ I live.

39 There in the ground his body lay; Light of the world by darkness slain; Then bursting forth in glorious day, up from the grave He rose again! And as He stands in victory, sin’s curse has lost its grip on me; For I am His and He is mine – bought with the precious blood of Christ.

40 No guilt in life, no fear in death – This is the power of Christ in me;From life’s first cry to final breath,Jesus commands my destiny.No pow’r of hell,no scheme of mancan ever pluck me from his hand;Till He returns or calls me home,here in the pow’rof Christ I’ll stand.Words & music by Keith Getty & Stewart Townend

50 Oh, to see the dawn Of the darkest day: Christ on the road to CalvaryOh, to see the dawn Of the darkest day: Christ on the road to Calvary. Tried by sinful men, Torn and beaten, then Nailed to a cross of wood. CHORUS: This, the pow'r of the cross: Christ became sin for us; Took the blame, bore the wrath— We stand forgiven at the cross.

51 Oh, to see the pain written on Your face, bearing the awesome weight of sin. Ev'ry bitter thought, ev'ry evil deed crowning Your bloodstained brow.Now the daylight flees; now the ground beneath quakes as its Maker bows His head. Curtain torn in two, dead are raised to life; "Finished!" the vict'ry cry.

53 Most glorious Lord of life,we thank youthat you nourish usin these Easter mysteries.Fill us with the Spirit of loveand unite us in faith,that we may witnessto the resurrectionand show your gloryto all the world.
